[llvm-dev] [CFP] Fifth LLVM Performance Workshop at CGO-2021

[Aditya K via llvm-dev]

What: Fifth LLVM Performance Workshop at CGO
When: Sunday February 28th, 2021 [9am-1pm (slot1) and 1pm-5pm (slot2) Eastern Time]
Where: Virtual
 
The Fifth LLVM Performance Workshop will be held at CGO 2021 (https://conf.researchr.org/track/cgo-2021/cgo-2021-workshops-and-tutorials). The workshop is co-located with CC, HPCA, and PPoPP. If you are interested in attending the workshop, please register at the CGO website (https://cgo-conference.github.io/cgo2021). The joint steering committee of CGO/PPoPP/HPCA/CC has decided to make the conference a virtual event this year.

 
Call for Speakers 
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We invite speakers from academia and industry to present their work on the following list of topics (including and not limited to):
     - compilation and interpretation techniques benefitting from LLVM,
     - performance optimizations, code-size optimizations and binary instrumentation techniques using LLVM,
     - improvements to runtime libraries developed under llvm-infrastructure e.g., libc++, libc++-abi, OpenMP, etc.
     - improving the security of generated code using compilation techniques,
     - any tools developed with LLVM (or subprojects) for performance analysis,
     - compiler flags, annotations and remarks to understand and improve performance,
     - any other topic related to improving and maintaining the performance and quality of LLVM generated code.

While the primary focus of the workshop is on these topics, we welcome any submissions related to the LLVM compiler infrastructure, its sub-projects (clang, lldb, openmp, Polly etc.), as well as its use in industry and academia.

We are looking for:

     - keynote speakers,
     - technical presentations,
     - tutorials,
     - panels,
     - BOFs.

Proposals should provide enough information for the review committee to be able to judge the quality of the submission. Proposals can be submitted under the form of an extended abstract (1-2 pages) or slides. Proposals should be submitted to Easychair LLVM-CGO 2020 (https://easychair.org/cfp/LLVM-CGO-2021). The deadline for receiving submissions is January 5, 2021 (Anywhere on Earth). Speakers will be notified of acceptance or rejection by January 15, 2021.

We are hoping to provide a social aspect to the workshop, suggestions and comments towards potential options are appreciated.
